Cruise denied any involvement and Comedy Central insisted the episode was changed as a tribute to Hayes who had just announced his departure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While you may have a better chance of spotting baby Suri than seeing Tom at the Emmys, all eyes will be on \"South Park\" creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker should the program win on August 27."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
